20100269497 | HYDRODYNAMIC TORQUE CONVERTER - The invention relates to a hydrodynamic torque converter with an impeller connected on the drive side arranged in housing and a turbine driven by the latter, connected with the driven side of the torque converter, with a turbine damper actively disposed between the turbine and driven side. To improve the vibration damping on the driven side of the torque converter, it is proposed the turbine damper with a first damper part formed out of an input part connected with the turbine and an intermediate flange, limited and rotatable opposite and against the action of at least a first energy accumulator and a second damper part with the intermediate flange and an output part limited and rotatable oppositely and against the action of at least a second energy accumulator, wherein an adaptive-speed vibration absorber is arranged on the intermediate flange. | 10-28-2010 |
20100279778 | TORSIONAL VIBRATION DAMPER - A torsional vibration damper according to the invention is proposed, which has a hub and a flange disposed radially outside the hub. For axial fastening of the flange on the hub, a fixing element and a holding element attached to the hub are provided, which limit movements of the fixing element caused by radially oriented centrifugal force. | 11-04-2010 |
20110179782 | ROTARY VIBRATION DAMPER WITH CENTRIFUGAL FORCE PENDULUM - A rotary vibration damper with an input part and an output part having a centrifugal force pendulum disposed on a flange part of the input part or output part, with several mass parts distributed over the circumference of the flange part, and disposed on two sides of the flange part, in raceways of the flange part, and limitedly displaceable in the circumferential direction, and in the radial direction by which two mass parts are interconnected respectively on opposite sides of the flange part. | 07-28-2011 |
20110201433 | DEVICE FOR DAMPING VIBRATIONS - A device for damping vibrations comprising at least two coaxially arranged damper parts rotatable relative to each other to a limited extent in the circumferential direction, coupled by torque transmitting means and damping coupling means, which exhibit at least one energy accumulator unit, and forming the impingement areas for the energy accumulator units. At least one damper part forms a guide channel for the energy accumulator units. The individual impingement area on the damper part forming the guide channel for the energy accumulator units is formed by a stop element, connected in a torsion proof manner at least indirectly to the damper part and forms the abutment faces in the guide channel in the circumferential direction. The abutment face is capable of supporting the energy accumulator unit on both sides of the impingement area on the energy accumulator unit and is a part of the other damper part. | 08-18-2011 |
20140041479 | TORSIONAL VIBRATION DAMPER - A torsional vibration damper for transferring torque between a first and a second rotatable element, having a rotatable pressure plate to transfer the torque from the first element, a rotatable output element to transfer the torque to the second element, and a vibration damper element to transfer the torque between the pressure plate and the output element, where the vibration damper element includes an energy-storing spring system. A driving element is formed in a single piece on the pressure plate to fit against the spring system. | 02-13-2014 |
20150126290 | TORSIONAL VIBRATION DAMPER - A torsional vibration damper comprises an input side and an output side which are arranged rotatably around an axis of rotation, an intermediate plate, and two elastic elements which are arranged on different circumferences around the axis of rotation, where the first elastic element is set up to transmit a power from the input side to the intermediate plate and the second elastic element is set up to transmit a power from the intermediate plate to the output side. Furthermore, the torsional vibration damper includes a single-piece retainer to support the first elastic element on a radially outer surface, while the retainer includes a contact element for engaging with one end of the first elastic element. | 05-07-2015 |
20150176676 | CENTRIFUGAL-FORCE PENDULUM - The invention relates to a centrifugal-force pendulum having a pair of pendulum masses and a pendulum flange, in which a curved cut-out having a cut-out contour is provided, wherein the pendulum masses of the pair of pendulum masses are arranged on both sides of the pendulum flange and are connected to each other by at least one spacer pin led through the cut-out, wherein the spacer pin has a damping arrangement which comprises at least one stabilizing element and at least one elastic damping element ( | 06-25-2015 |
20150369334 | CENTRIFUGAL FORCE PENDULUM DEVICE - A centrifugal force pendulum device includes a pendulum flange and at least two pendulum masses attached to both sides of the pendulum flange by a spacer element to make a pendulum mass pair. The pendulum mass pair is guided relative to the pendulum flange by a roller element, and is pivotable to a limited extent. Furthermore, the spacer element is equipped with a damper to damp an impact of the spacer element against an adjacent component, where the damper includes a stopper which limits the maximum deflection of the damper upon impact. | 12-24-2015 |
